Member of Provincial Assembly for the Muttahida Qaumi Movement – Pakistan Irtiza Khalil Farooqi on Friday joined Mustafa Kamal’s Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP).
Irtiza was a member of the Sindh Assembly from the PS-119 KARACHI seat.
While addressing a press conference at the Karachi Press Club PSP Chairman Mustafa Kamal welcomed Farooqi to his party.
“I welcome Irtiza to the party. I wish him all the best. I hope his addition proves beneficial for us and and all others who are just standing on the line waiting for a chance to join PSP,” he said.
Kamal, a former Karachi mayor, was flanked by Irtiza and other members of his party, which was born following a split from the MQM in March last year.
Irtiza is the latest defection to the PSP from the MQM, which itself split into two factions when the MQM Pakistan distanced itself from the party founder and London-based leadership.
